Both our foodservice and ingredient customers know that aseptic processing is of tremendous benefit to product quality since it subjects the product to less total heat and agitation. This results in products that are shelf-stable and maintain their fresh flavor, bright color, and fruit identity. Lyons operates five separate aseptic systems, including both tubular and mixed mode (tubular/scrape) technology. We've designed each of the systems with specific product applications in mind to help guarantee appropriate heating, holding, and cooling time. In addition, we've further improved product quality with the addition of several proprietary concepts such as deareation of juices, stream blending of fruit ingredients, and flavor injection. Our processing systems feed a host of packaging options, ranging from semi-rigid aseptic cartons for juice products to 330 gallon flexible bags in fiber totes for stabilized fruit preparations.
